Examination of the amino acid composition of a newly isolated protein indicates the presence of 10 lysines, 5 arginines, and 3 m

ethionines. When the protein is treated with cyanogen bromide, four peptides are obtained. When it is treated with trypsin, 15 peptides are obtained. What do these results suggest regarding the sequence of the protein?

Answer:

It means that the cyanogen bromide hydrolyzes methionine residues with high efficiency, while trypsin is an enzyme that cuts proteins at lysine and arginine peptidic bonds, thereby producing 4 and 15 polypeptides, respectively.

Explanation:

Cyanogen bromide is a pseudohalogen compound that is used to cut the C-terminus of the methionine residues. On the other hand, the trypsin is an enzyme produced by the pancreas as trypsinogen that is used by the digestive system (intestine) to digest polypeptides.

Classify the type of erosion that could move sand along a shoreline
natka813 [3]

Answer:

  • Erosion and deposition (shoreline retreat)

Explanation:

Sand moves along a shoreline through hydraulic and mechanical action (friction) of the waves. During this course, two phenomenons usually occur, i.e. erosion followed by deposition.

However, sometimes when the wave action is stronger, it leads to the coastal erosion or the shoreline retreat where a land part is permanently lost and the sand is moved with the waves forming beaches.
